How? Explain it.

Can anyone explain it?

Stress = force/area.

According to this, if we increase the stress so the area of section is decreased. So when stress is equal to working stress so the area becomes infinite.

Anyone please explain this.

D should be the correct answer.

Deepak kumar said:   8 years ago
Working stress means maximum so the area will be minimum.

Skm said:   7 years ago
Option D is correct.

Satya said:   7 years ago
Option D is correct I think.

Freely prismatic bar stress is equal zero. So area is infinite.

Consider S = stress.

Then partial derivative of stress with respect area.
dS/dA=pd(A power minus 1)/dA,
solve it,
A=p/0,
A= infinite.
